Ciffev Nomun, HI 202-457-5270 cnomunpjnonbcgg5.com PRIVILEGED AND CONFIDENTIAL ATTORNEY CLIENT COMMUNICATION December 22,1998 MEMORANDLJM FOR THE VINYL CHLORIDE HEALTH COMMITTEE Re: Press Response and Talking Points On our last conference call I agreed to circulate a final version of the press response and talking points reflecting a few comments from a previous call and, more specifically, any revisions warranted by Ken Mundt's revised study report. The attached papers reflea a number of changes. The discussion of connective and soft tissue cancers was changed somewhat to reflea the more recent draft report. In addition, the comparison between the case-control results and the cohort results was clarified at Ken's suggestion. In light of these changes, I thought it best to leave the papers in draft, subjea to your determination that you are ready for them to be issued in final form. At the same time, obviously, they have been reviewed sufficiently that you should feel confident in using them should the need arise. With best wishes for the holiday season and the New Yeari Ccilu. _ _ - W.Caffej/Norman, IK Attachments BALTIMORE DALLAS DENVER GREENSBORO RALEIGH SEATTLE WASHINGTON. DC CMA 172733
